Jupiter in Capricorn
December 3, 2019 -
December 18, 2020
Jupiter - values,
ideals, belief
systems, expansion
Capricorn -
conservative, looks
to tradition, values
hard work and
responsibility.
Many view Jupiter
cycles as always
favorable. A
better way to look
at Jupiter is of the
planet of expansion.
When situations are
favorable, Jupiter
enhances the
positive, but when
situations are
problematic, Jupiter
helps to create
larger problems.
With Jupiter joining
Saturn and Pluto in
2020, the repressive
side of Saturn is
more likely
highlighted.
Those in authority
will seek to
solidify and enhance
their positions and
repress those whom
they see as enemies.
The World Picture
Destruction of status quo leading to shifts in geopolitical
environment.
US
less interested in
assuming world
leadership.
President Obama
retreated
from Mideast. President
Trump’s “America
first” i.e., putting
America’s interests
first without
concern for how this
affects other
countries.
(Quote from President John F. Kennedy “ Domestic policy can only defeat
us; foreign policy
can kill us.”
https://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/john_f_kennedy_400097)
US - Trump’s
popularity
decreases.
Increased political
conflict between
“left” and right.”
US, China, and
Russia
– all triggered by
these cycles.
Internationally -
expect issues over
world leadership,
trade, cybersecurity
to heat up.
Domestically –
disruptions, power
struggles, crack
downs.
(Originally written
in 2008)
NATO, European Union
and the IMF – also triggered by these cycles. Expect greater conflict
among member nations
which can paralyze
or breakup these
institutions.
(Written before
Brexit).
Federal Reserve –
also triggered by
these cycles –
Formidable
opposition to
Federal Reserve’s
authority.
On the brighter side
when
Jupiter was in Libra opposite Uranus in Aries - technological innovation. And
uprisings against
the status quo could
be the start of greater
freedom to repressed
peoples.
Marijuana legal in
more states in US.

well as chaos and
revolution.

equality.

Jupiter in Scorpio – October 10, 2017 to November 8, 2017
Jupiter represents opportunity, expansion, and optimism.
Scorpio along with its rulership of the 8th house has to do
with sex, death,
inheritances, joint
finances, and
taxes.
The initial entry of a planet into a sign previews what’s to come. So
far, we’ve seen
scandals over sex
and money
laundering.
See:
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/10/05/us/harvey-weinstein-harassment-allegations.html

Expect to hear about more sex scandals, money laundering, and sex
trafficking.
2017 A Volatile Year
Uranus in Aries,
Pluto in Capricorn &
Jupiter in Libra
Neptune in Pisces,
Saturn in
Sagittarius
Saturn in
Sagittarius –
December 2014 to
December 2017.
Saturn – authority,
responsibility,
restriction,
boundaries,
conservatism,
reality
Sagittarius –
freedom,
independence,
travel, foreign
countries, belief
systems, religion,
publishing
Conservative belief
systems taking
hold. Restrictions
on travel.
Restrictions on free
speech.
So far, this
timeframe has
coincided with
repression of
journalists.
Examples include
Turkey’s jailing
anyone speaking
against the
government and the
Obama
Administration’s
prosecution of more
Whistle Blowers than
any other
administration.
Jupiter in Libra
September 2016 to
October 2017
Jupiter –
opportunity,
expansion, abundance
Libra – balance,
relationships and
alliances
Normally this would
be a positive time
for international
alliances and
relationships, but
Jupiter’s planetary
relationships during
its time in Libra
negate this.
Jupiter opposed
Uranus in December,
2016 and will oppose
it again in March
and September. It
forms squares to
Pluto in Capricorn
in April and
August. In August
Uranus will station
at the same time.
This bodes more for
treaty breakdowns,
uprisings, and
increased
instability.
August 21 Solar
Eclipse – Visible in US, cuts country in half. Conjoins Donald Trump’s
Ascendant and Mars
in Leo. This
Eclipse belongs to
the Saros Cycle 145
(18 year cycle).
This Saros Cycle has been particularly unfavorable for US presidents.
Saros cycle – 1945
President Roosevelt
dies in office. 1963
– Cold War between
US and Russia &
assassination of
President Kennedy.
1981 Attempted
assassination of
President Reagan,
